I saw a short interview with him by France 24 and he mainy said he thinks the current direction of the research teams at Meta is wrong. He made a contrast between top-down push to deliver org as opposed to long leash, leave the researches to experiment with things. He said Meta shifted from the latter to the former and he doesn’t agree with the approach.
Also he thinks LLMs are a dead end for getting smarter AI while Zuck is doubling down on them.
ZFS. It runs on whatever RAM you give it.
China gotta step in.
The organization has already transitioned to a nonprofit in the U.S. but is still working to set up a nonprofit in Belgium, or an AISBL, to replace the German entity, which lost its nonprofit status last year. Once established, the Belgian nonprofit will be the future home of the organization. In the meantime, the U.S.-based 501©(3) c nonprofit will own the trademark and other assets.
Very important step.
Wait so is this about the app catalog? Because Rebble appears to be MIT-licensed open source, which means Eric can fork it and use it, even not contribute his changes back.
Either way I think we deserve some response from Eric on this.
Only if Trump lands in Venezuela for the talks and sits next to Maduro at all times.
Or a Zoom call.
As someone who’s done cloud infrastructure professionally, this is the right way to make a project for setting up self-hosted applications. Not writing a bunch of bash scripts and putting them behind some web UI. We have well established infrastructure/config-as-code systems that are the gold standard which runs most clouds out there. Ansible is one of them. That’s the right tool for this job and a ton of professionals understand it and therefore can easily contribute improvements for the ones who don’t to use. I’m unfortunatrly invested in SaltStack but I wouldn’t feel worried to deploy a (well reviewed) project built on Ansible. Then slap a web UI on it if you like but that should be another project that hooks uses this one.
This is much needed.
The joint company was formed to redevelop the site of the Serbian armed forces headquarters in Belgrade, which was bombed by Nato in 1999. The plan provoked protests in the city centre.
Serbian national pride has entered the chat.
People are lead to believe that the FA extends to all facets of their lives. I think that’s one of the reasons why they let corporations get away with so much deregulation. People often don’t realize how much less responsibility corporations have than them for the same actions. I still get shocked pikachu faces when I tell people what limited liability is and they ask how is this shit legal.
Corporations aren’t people and they don’t act in ethical manner you might expect. Any corporate action that isn’t furthering its profits one way or another should be considered a coincidence or a mistake. Very few firms, typically smaller, private, and or with special ideological predisposition fall outside.
He is already elected.
Err, that’s not true on the last fee devices I’ve used, Pixels and a Fairphone. Installing apps from APK files doesn’t require me to enable dev options. In fact trying to install an APK from say Files brings me straight to the permission setting. It’s also per-app. It can be accessed under Settings > Apps > Special app access > Install unknown apps.
Countdown to invading Venezuela has started.
Good point. Context
Yes, but self-hosting does whatever the HOWTO, YouTube vid or AI slop the user follows tells them to do. If the user doesn’t know the basics, how could they know what an instruction for activating UPnP does or opening a NAT port does and why that might expose their data? Laymen don’t even understand what making theie stuff publicly accessible means. It might simply mean “Yay I can access my stuff on the go.” 😄
If on the other had the user learns the basics, they can tell when a doc instructs them to do something dangerous and they can do something about it to avoid disaster.
high-performance
You bury your lede by mentioning “your project” at the end.
Basically means the user has to trust that project to do the right thing and be maintained to keep their setup secure.
The WHO is losing staff today due to lack of funding. That is “a bad ending.” If someone can put up the money in short order to stop that bad ending, it’s better one. China can do that. If a stronger democracy can do it so we can have more good endings down the road, they should. I’m not optimistic.
